I have been away for a few days, but it looks like Rudy directed you to where the mic is located.
If you have a 2005 09/04 production e60, you should most likely already have BT, especially if yours is a US model. You can probably just take a bluetooth phone and pair it. To be sure, just call BMW of North America, give them the last seven digits of your VIN, and they can tell you if you have it.
Good luck.

This will improve your mic pick up and reduce background noise. However if you are not getting good quality on stand still this will not do anything for you and you need to look at the electronics involved.
